The WX8 is an innovative fully automated 200mm cassette stocker that stores and traces wafers horizontally in a clean ISO class 3 mini-environment.

The WX8 combines a carrier stocker with wafer sorter capability. Besides improved storage capacity and quick access to individual wafers the system uses the existing cassettes.
Each wafer and its history is continuously tracked. The WX8 can administer and also change categories of the wafers based on the process cycles thus providing a complete management solution for your test or productive 200mm wafers.

Specifically a fully automated cassette and wafer management system with the WX8 offers many advantages over the traditional process using cassette stockers and sorters with transportation in between.

Key Features and Advantages

• Automatically lot preparation in the background.
• Fast access to each single wafer.
• Reduces clean room space and number of cassettes to manage the NPW wafers.
• Stores and manages your wafers in safe ISO class 3 mini environment.
• Improves the process tool utilization due to a more efficient lot preparation and shorter availability on the process bay.
